Happy Jack

I remain unconvinced about buying cables designed for the mid range. What if you prefer a scooped tone?

On my General Discussion screen, this shows up as "My P-bass has been sent off". Every time I see it, I wonder if it was two yellows or a straight red.

Interesting ... never even saw that thread.

Hmmmm ... £1600 at today's rate = $2340. These basses retail at $2400 new, so buying this one second-hand would save you shipping & tax. Yes, the saving's worth having, but this is no bargain.

[quote name='FinnDave' timestamp='1465200252' post='3065949'] Only other bass players care whether you use a pick, fingers, or half a house brick to play, so long as they like what they hear. [/quote] Ain't dat de troof! Although IME even other bass players don't give a monkey's. I certainly don't.

Well? Do you? http://youtu.be/9IYZyxPsjgs We may need to think about this ...

Silver paint ...

I thought I did well to get an excellent Tokai for £185! Well done mate.

The BarFM website is deeply sh*t, Ralph! Not surprised you didn't bother to link to it. Can you confirm this gig isn't Members Only (or something equally daft)?

[quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1464939236' post='3063857'] This must have been posted before? [/quote] Yup. In 2010. And 2011. And 2012. And ... you get the picture?

Blue, you might want to actually WATCH the video first ...

$7k's worth of fun? I don't think so ...

It's a Jazz. http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/Reverend_Justice_and_Thundergun_Bass_Reviews?page=2

The eye of the beholder and all that. If I owned that bass, I'd pay good money for a refin. Sorry.

Phwoar!!! That's a looker. What a great-looking bass - I wish everyone could see it.
